Contract-Based Architectural Compliance

Architecture stops being a guideline. The platform reinforces it on every generation.

What this capability does

Architecture as an enforced contract.

Software architecture is encoded as a rigorous system contract. expandev acts as an uncompromising Quality Gate: before AI-assisted code is integrated, it is checked against approved technology stacks, sanctioned libraries, and established design patterns.

Architecture is no longer a guideline that erodes one prompt at a time — it is a prerequisite the platform enforces at generation time, on every project and across every team.

Key functionalities

What's inside the capability.

Stack declaration with version pinning

Frameworks and libraries declared upfront with version pinning and rationale. Drift becomes detectable, not invisible.

Layered asset model

Experience → Application → Domain → Infrastructure layers with components declared per layer before generation runs.

Quality Gate at generation time

A generated module using an unsanctioned dependency is rejected at the source — before reaching the codebase.

Per-project enforcement, org-wide inheritance

A golden-path architecture template defined once is inherited by every team's projects.

Where it lives in the product

Inside the Architecture workspace.

Surfaces inside the Architecture workspace, across two views: Stacks (pinned tech and sanctioned libraries) and Assets (the layered model). Violations surface in the Development workspace during generation and in the Analyzer's Compliance view.

Why it matters

Architects regain enforcement, not just authority. Platform teams promote a golden path the model is obliged to follow. CTOs get defensible architecture decisions on demand, instead of explaining drift after the fact.
